Welcome to a little slice of culinary heaven where we share photos of our favorite dishes, from savory succulent sausages to delicious and delectable desserts. Made it yourself? We'd love to hear your recipe!

Rules:

1. BE KIND

Food should bring people together, not tear them apart. Think of the human on the other side of the screen, and don't troll, harass, engage in bigotry, or otherwise make others uncomfortable with your words.

2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Preferably good, high quality pictures of good looking grub; for pictures of terrible food, see !shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca

So the mods of a few of the cooking/food communities have come together to try to help eachother and our communities grow. You may have noticed we have started linking other communities on the side bar. And we are discussing other forms of cross-promotion. If you have any suggestions please feel free to comment them below.

For now, we are encouraging our users to subscribe and cross post when they can to related communities. We want our communities and Lemmy as a whole to grow and we need users and content. More content = more users that may become interested to subscribe. We are also asking our users to take part and post. There’s a very high percentage of lurkers and that’s perfectly fine, but we need people to post and share. That’s the only way we will be able to keep this train rolling. So please post and cross-post when you can and help us grow our communities. Thank you!

I have the same feeling.

We have experienced everyone creating their obscure communities for the last few months, but it is obvious that due to the size of Lemmy, only communities which are generic enough can get enough traction to survive

It's a political thing.

This post has me seriously considering no longer contributing to any communities.

Edit: Mods can read the original messages, right?

I have no idea about the politics, I think you have to admit that the food communities have not transferred from Reddit. Even the pizza subs are kinda dead. Maybe it will just take time, or maybe they won't find traction here. Idk, but I know I'm not going back to the other place. Hopefully it happens here, if it doesn't, then I will randomly post into the void about random projects.
